Soya Sauce Chicken Noodle

Today I asked my girl what does she want to eat for dinner and her answer is noodle. So I decided to try the soya sauce chicken recipe and cook the noodle I bought from KCT.  Thank you, Sally Amudhan for sharing the soya sauce chicken recipe.

Noodle bought from Kwong Cheong Thye

Ingredients for blanching chicken:

Water (level sufficient enough to cover the chicken)

Ginger (amount to your taste preference), I used 3 slices

Spring onion (amt to your taste preference)

Ingredients for gravy:

Lee Kum Kee Chicken Marinate

Water

Ginger, I used 3-4 slices

1 star anise

1 cinnamon stick

1 tbsp dark soya sauce ( add more if want darker colour for chicken)

Rock sugar ( amount to your preference)

Preparation & Cooking Methods:

1. Prepare a pot of boiling water with ginger and spring onion, then blanch the chicken for 1-2 mins

2. Take out and dip into icing cold water, then drain dry the chicken.

3. Prepare gravy.  In a pot, big enough for chicken to dip inside, add a part of chicken marinate, 4 parts of water( depend on how dilute or salty you want, adjust to your likings, make sure the mixed liquid is enough to cover the whole of chicken so that you can get a nice coating.

4. Add in star anise, cinnamon stick, dark soya sauce and ginger.

5. Bring to boil and add in rock sugar to your preference.  Then add in chicken to the pot and boil till chicken cooked.  

6. Off fire and let chicken sit inside the pot for awhile for the coating colour to be even.  Take out and rest in a plate to cool down before chop up and serve.

For cooking noodle bought from KCT:

1. Boil a pot of water and blanch some vegetables.

2. With noodle in a drainer, cook the noodle in the pot of boiling water till cooked.

3. In a serving plate, put some black sesame oil, light soya sauce and the cooked chicken gravy.

4.  Put the cooked noodle, chopped chicken and vegetable on the serving plate. Serve with some chilli or hae bee hiam if you want.
